Everything about the Airbus aircraft, from maintenance to cargo handling, has been thought through to minimise turnaround time. An on-board maintenance panel in an A310 gives quick troubleshooting and testing. The wide-body fuselage gives easy access and all avionics are located in a single bay. Standard containers mean standard ground equipment and procedures. Passengers board and leave by the left hand side while all servicing is on the right hand side which avoids congestion. And as well as taking up less time on the ground the A310 takes up less space - up to 20 per cent less per passenger than comparable aircraft. Which makes the A310 as popular at crowded airports as it is with busy ground crews. % AIRBUS INDUSTRIE ^3^B
